Manufacturer Info

Kent Marine Aquarium SuppliesKent Marine was established by aquatic hobbyists who saw a need for products that aid the user in creating the most natural enclosed marine and freshwater environment possible. From vitamin and mineral supplements to nutritional products and filter media, Kent Marine set the benchmark and was one of the first in the aquatic industry to provide these unique solutions. For the past 15 years, Kent Marine has been committed to providing effective ways to keep beautiful, healthy aquariums. Through continuous research, testing and development, new products like salt mix, scrapers and reverse osmosis filtration were brought into the Kent Marine family.

I have been using this product for about two years. My stag horn corals are growing faster than ever and the pink coralline algae quickly covered the glass and rocks in my tank.

Kent Marine Purple Tech

Supports dKH and pH when used as directed. Accelerates growth of coralline algae in a noticeable way.

Next to zero results

Did a cycle with a small bottle, had next to zero results. Not sure if it was this product, but I've had luck with Carribsea Purple Up

So so

Seems to be helping. The rock was great looking but lacking life. I have had other products suggested by the local reef store and am not totally impressed after 3 weeks of daily use.

Works Great

Only needed a small amount to get the best results. Super pop in coraline algae growth! Best added at night as it does cloud the water for a short period.

The best!!!

I use it with my new setup RSM 250 and coraline algea started to grow everywhere in just 2 months. It also comes with trace elements so I can dose just once a day. Using this and regular water change, I have everything in check. Highly recommended

Got my rocks going again

My rocks have been having a very hard time getting coralline algae to restart. The thick bleached coralline (bleached suring curing) just would not turn purple, pink, anything. I added this to my tank, as directed and within 2 weeks, my rocks are turning purple, pink, and orange. And the bleached area is getting nice color again. My Ca is ~480, Mg ~1450 and dKH 12.

Not effective!

I am very surprised. I use Kent salt and suppliments but this Purple Tech has been ineffective. I love their products but am not happy with this one. Purple Up has been the best product in this category I've used.
